Have you heard of the great DIGITAL DIVIDE that has been present in almost every school district in the nation?
This DIVIDE has to do with the availability of educational resources to child, student and learner regardless of their financial condition.
The "HAVES" and the "HAVE NOTS" is a problem that every district has had to address continually. It is a condition that touches all aspects of education from supplies, equipment and staff to transportation, books and technology. In an effort to solve some of the disparity of access to technology resources many districts are considering students bringing their personal devices for use in the classroom. I have gathered the following list (by no means complete) as a beginning list of devices that could be or are presently used in the classroom from kindergarten to high school.
